With the ongoing kitchen remodel, we have been eating out much of the time. This is not easy since we just moved here, know only a few restaurants, and even fewer that Jack likes. One old standby is Boston Market. Another is Nick's Pizza place.
But I'd taken Jack to Nick's on Monday night so on Tuesday we were headed to Boston Market for chicken.
"Pizza!" he said, all the way there.
"Chicken," we replied.
"PIZZA!" he said.
Until we got to Boston Market and learned they were already closed for Independence Day, only to reopen on Thursday.
So we said "Pizza!"
and he said "No! Chicken!"
************************
Thursday morning upon waking he staggered into our bedroom with his "bin" (blanket) and stuffed kitty in hand.
"NO!" he said to us.
We are still trying to figure out what the question was.
I usually charge heftily for professional translation, but I'll give you one freebie. The question was: "Jack, do you want to stay in bed?"
